This pilot course, if successful, may become a mandatoryfreshman class for students ready for college geometry and trigonometry. For other students, itwould be available as an elective class.This pilot course mainly addresses retention problems of students who have poor mathematicalskills or who do not understand the important connections between math, science andengineering. Other educators have had success in integrating math and science classes [6, 7], butthese attempts have typically waited until the students are calculus-ready. The approach in ourpilot

The central idea being to show the students howall STEM subjects tend to rely on each other, and that having a tactile application for these principlesenhances the learning process.ROV State-wide Competition In addition to having teachers explain pertinent STEM concepts and supervise the construction ofan ROV, we thought it would be beneficial to offer a motivation for the students to strive to optimize theirROV design. Many similar organizations such as MATE and SeaPerch have had great success with andsupport for competitions, and we felt that using a similar motivation would prove effective.

With rising enrollments in engineering curricula andgreater numbers of students matriculating per year, higher emphasis is placed on course gradesas a metric for student distinction which results in amplified pressure on the students to not onlysucceed, but to excel. This leads some students to try and find an easy way out, namely cheating.For faculty, the challenges are to minimize the likelihood of cheating, to detect it when it occurs,and to deal sternly but fairly with the cheaters.Academic integrity violations (such as cheating, lying, and stealing) are a widespread

The interconnectivity of products isbecoming a standard in the product development process rather than an option; consequently,companies look for designers who can conceptualize such products.This paper asks the vital question, perhaps as a self-criticizing way: “Are we ready to address thedemand when potential employers ask for a new breed of designers who are capable of designinginterconnected products?”The authors of this paper investigated this question by conducting mixed methodology researchwith ID

While largely reliant on the student standards set forth by the International Societyfor Technology in Education, many state curriculums do not enforce a means to test and measurestudents’ digital education. With an increasing dependence on technology for both education andworkforce success, we consider whether or not industry professionals and higher educationbelieve digital competency should be assessed in primary and secondary education.PurposeOur research aims to evaluate the extent to which digital

The Consensual Assessment Technique (CAT)has shown promise in a variety of domains for its potential as a valid and reliable means ofcreativity assessment. Relying upon an operational definition of creativity and a group of ratersexperienced in a given domain, the CAT offers the field of engineering education an assessmentmethod that has demonstrated discriminant validity for dimensions of creativity as well as fortechnical strength and aesthetic appeal. This paper reports on a web-based adaptation of the CATfor rating student projects developed during a week-long engineering camp. High school

students often do not enjoysuch substantive community experiences, and, in part because of this, they achieve lower rates ofpersistence to degree completion. Studies have examined this discrepancy in persistence todegree and found that the physical separation between an online student and their educationalinstitution can lead to a sense of isolation. This sense of isolation in turn can lead to an onlinestudent’s sense of alienation from their institution and powerlessness to change their situation.Numerous underlying factors appear to contribute to these feelings, including the usability of thetechnology tools that power the online education environment and the quality of student-facultyand student-student interactions that those tools enable.

Cluster Structure for First-Year Engineering Curriculum at Texas A&Maccommodate the diverse needs of its entering students.Student TeamsThere are several reasons for using student teams as an integral part of the class. First,employers are requesting engineering graduates with improved skills and more experience inworking within a team structure. Industry changed to team decisions because of the ir experiencethat more creative solutions to problems occurred in a team environment. Second, engineeringprograms applying for accreditation under Engineering Criteria 2000 of the Accreditation Boardof Engineering and Technology (ABET) are asked to demonstrate that their graduates have “anability to function on multi-disciplinary teams.” 7
